Slating
Over the past three decades we've been laying slates on houses
throughout the whole of the UK. So we know what we're doing!
We cover all types of roofing from domestic outhouses to major
commercial buildings and we use all types of material including Welsh,
Spanish, Chinese and Brazilian slate.
We have the knowledge and we have the expertise to ensure a
trouble-free and aesthetically pleasing roof on your property.
Slating is a specialist operation which requires experience and proven ability in order to achieve the right results.
We've been around for long enough to have seen too many examples of slates laid incorrectly! All natural slates should be
graded by thickness with the thick ones toward the bottom. Slates are then laid side by side with
slates of the same thickness to ensure everything lies flat. Head lap and battening should be
worked out correctly for the size of the slate being used and slates should be laid with a slight gap
so that water is not trapped, causing the slates to split in freezing conditions.
We are selective about the slates we use, preferring slates that do not have active pirites in the rock so you will be left with a
natural roof that will have a stable colour throughout its life.
There's a the huge range of slates and options available and we will be happy to advise and help you to make the correct choice
for your property. If we then do the job for you, you'll get a slate roof that looks perfect and will last a lifetime.
